Eat food read books.

[layne67]

Do you read when you eat? Or vice versa? I do it. Most of the time anyway. I used to do it all the time when I was younger, reached for a book at meal times and my mother would frown and say it wasn't polite to do that when you were in other people's company.

Somehow it enhances the stories that I'm reading, and the food would taste better too. And I associate some food with certain books/stories, like lychees with Enid Blyton's Amelia Jane series, and fish curry with The Lord of the Rings. Some of my most beloved books have lots of unrecognizable stains on them!

I can't eat when I read porn though. Or the darker horror stories, like some of the Stephen King's books. For those I need my full concentration lol.

But most of the time, I love eating while reading. Not good for the keyboard but I have a hand towel ready!

LOL you're probably going to freak out if you were to see my books. Oh I love them and it drives me nuts if people were to leave them open face downwards, but other than that, my books are mostly dog-eared and well-thumbed :D
